In this time and age we have found ourselves, every single one of us prefer the doing things the easiest way possible. Be it cooking, transportation, business, commerce and many other activities humans engage in, there is always an easy way to go around all of them. Beauty among women and even men has not been left out. We all want to look beautiful and ravishing but where is the time to sit at the salon almost all day getting those braids done or installing those weaves? And the stress of sitting at a spot for hours getting those braids done cannot be described. It may sound like sitting for hours is as easy as it sounds until you try getting those micro braids done. Phew!
So because of the stressful and time consuming nature of getting our hair done, a bunch of genius people conceived the idea of weave making. Oh the Joy women around the world would felt at the introduction of wigs into the beauty world.
Definitely, Nigerian women were not left behind. We welcomed this new development with everything in us. First, it started by turning old sew-in weaves into wigs by hairdressers for their customers. Not long after, these hairstylists went ahead to learn the art of proper wig making and the rest now is history. There are different types of wigs in different styles available everywhere now. Women spend so much on these wigs because they easy to use and last for a long time depending on the quality. There are wigs made from real human hair,fibre extensions also known as synthetic hair and also from a blend of these two types of hairs which is known as human hair blend. This human hair blend also come in grades depending on the ratio of the mixture of real human hair to synthetic hair.
Women now go for these wigs because they are easy to install, easy to maintain and mostly because they save time and are also not stressful to be installed. An average wig can just be worn on the head, secured in place with the use of elastic bands or hair pins and that would be all that needs to be done. Easy peazy!
One of the best thing about wigs is that it comes in different styles that can be used by women of all classes. There is a wig out there for every woman, old and young, working-class women, stay-at-home moms and even students. Nobody is left out. Little wonder the hair and beauty industry keeps booming every day.
The men are not left out. There are wigs that are mostly used by those who wish to cover their baldness but this discussion would be for another day.
Happy weekend!
